1 Corinthians 13:11

Jump to another verse

"When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways. "

1 Corinthians 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

1 Corinthians 13:2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful;

1 Corinthians 13:5 it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;

1 Corinthians 13:6 it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.

1 Corinthians 13:7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

1 Corinthians 13:8 Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.

1 Corinthians 13:9 For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect;

1 Corinthians 13:10 but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away.

1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways.

1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.

1 Corinthians 13:13 So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

AMEN!

Maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violence or destruction. Maturity is patience. It is the willingness to pass up immediate pleasure in favor of the long-term gain. Maturity is perseverance, the ability to sweat out a project or a situation in spite of heavy opposition and discouraging set-backs. Maturity is the capacity to face unpleasantness and frustration, discomfort and defeat, without complaint or collapse. Maturity is humility. It is being big enough to say, "I was wrong." And, when right, the mature person need not experience the satisfaction of saying, "I told you so." Maturity is the ability to make a decision and stand by it. The immature spend their lives exploring endless possibilities;
